In Tired of note-taking appsIf anybody is sad about Zettlr not having the graph view of like the one in Obsidian or RoamResearch, please be patient.
A PR is already open for it. -> https://github.com/Zettlr/Zettlr/pull/921
OpenSource powaaaaa! :)
In Zettlr – FOSS markdown editor for personal knowledge management and publishingDownloadable from GitHub https://github.com/Zettlr/Zettlr/releases/
In Zettlr – FOSS markdown editor for personal knowledge management and publishingObsidian has a graph view, yes. But Zettlr is a much more stable note taking app than Obsidian. Zettlr is also open source. I would recommend you checkout Zettlr.com if possible. It has great set of tools and is stable unlike Obsidian (beta) which is proprietary.
Currently Zettlr doesn't have graph view, But the PR for a graph view is up and soon will come (power of open source?). If cool with it, I would recommend Open Source Software like Zettlr. :)

In Foam – A Roam Research alternative with VSCode, Markdown and GitHubhttps://www.zettlr.com/ (https://github.com/Zettlr/Zettlr) is what I used before I discovered MarkText. Also open-source, also WYSIWYG, also Electron I believe.
In Mark Text: Simple and Elegant Markdown Editor Focused on Speed and UsabilityA similar WYSIWYG project I found recently, that is open-source:
